Status Is Just Made Of Words

Social Network. It’s not just a trend nowadays.
It's a necessity. It’s a necessary.
To keep in touch of your friends.
To let people know what you're doing.
With regular updates on your status
Life in general or relationship in particular.

And the network that I've been using is Facebook.com.
Which I am very fond of.
Not just because of its innovative idea on how we communicate.
But also due to the flexibility of how we do things.
Online. Virtually. In a social network.
Thanks to Mark Zuckerberg. The founder of Facebook.
In fact, last night, I watched Social Network.
A story of how he founded Facebook.com.
Mark Zuckerberg. The Youngest Billionaire to date, at the age of 23. [source]

But right now, I'm not going to talk about his life.
Instead, I'm going to talk about profile status.
Where in Facebook, its called Facebook status.
And this issue, also, relates to relationship status.

The status. It's where people write everything.
Their feelings. Their experiences. In fact, all about their lives.
And people are much more "open" nowadays.
They let themselves exposed to the virtual world of globalization.
But there are still some, who hides behind the back of insecurity.
So instead, they post quotations. And they post lyrics.
Which have a hidden meaning. The true meaning.

This is something, which always caused misinterpretations.
This is what made people develops negative perceptions and false accusations.
The reason behind all this; words doesn't have voices.
They don’t have intonations. They don’t have ups and downs.
Thus, it’s all depends on us. It's all up to us.
How do we read those words. How do we "listens" to the true meaning of those words.

And so, sometimes, people read them wrong.
Sometimes, a person misjudges the true intention.
So, like I said, people made judgments.
And they give criticisms.
Instead of finding the truth, they jump into conclusion.
Nothing is easy as it seems. [source]
If people are in relationships, relationship status is very important.
It does reflect on the actual relationship situation.
Even though, I know, there are some who lies about this status.
But for some, who take this thing seriously. It is very important.
There are people out there, who fight over this issue.
Because they take this thing for granted.

As for me, I had experienced all that.
People misjudged my status.
They misinterpreted my words.
Because, this is what happens when people don't read carefully.
When people don't "see" clearly. And don't "listen" attentively.
And when people don't realize, that a Status Is Just Made of Words.

Foot Note:
When we write something, it could be read in many ways. Once again. It's all up to us.

there's nothing that frees up my life the day i delete it. I feel lighter.

i don't like my life being keep online for record. google and facebook aren't not so different after all.

and that's why i prefer twitter. its raw.
